Eddie Mungai's Random Ramblings

Quarantined? Bored? Wanna geek out with Eddie and watch some Trek? Then join me on my Twitch channel at 7 PM Central Standard Time, this Saturday, May 16th! If you wanna tell me what I should play, hit me up at @ed_mungai on Twitter. Otherwise, meet me on Saturday at twitch.tv/ed_mungai. Hope to see you there!

It's "Shadowplay", the episode where we learn about Sarge's love for fake worlds, and her dislike of too close in camera smooches. Plus, there's a Deep Space Nine episode in there.

It's our wildcard episode, TNG's "The Wounded", in which we ask, Is plankton loaf a food? Does Data affect his androidness? Is Picard a 24th century Hank Hill Join us to find out!

Unfortunately, Sarge couldn't be here this week, so my friend Evan is filling in to comment on the space amish episode "Paradise". Let me know what you think of this one, and whether we should go back later and redo it with Sarge!

Where doing "Whispers", a big mind screw of an episode! Can the replicator make hamsters? Is Ted Cruz a person? Will THEY hurt you? We don't answer any of these questions, but we do ask them!

You're in for a big surprise, an episode where Sarge likes Julian! Tangents include Irish food, military spouses, and how much human memory blows.

It's finally here, the "Tuvix" episode! Listen as Sarge and Eddie debate abstract philosophy, and Sarge freaks out over Kes' age!

Dr. Mora is an abusive dad! Dr. Bashir is creepier than usual! "The Alternate" is a bad episode for doctors! Fair warning, this one gets intense.

It's "Rivals", probably the lowest stakes episode we've done so far. Is probability alteration really science fiction? Does anyone care about racketball? Have we finally found someone worse than Quark? Listen and find out!

It's "Sanctuary", DS9's refugee allegory. Should the Bajorans have taken in the Skreeans? Would Haneek be a better leader than someone we know? Is the world run by lizard people? Find out in this episode, assuming the lizard people don't shut us down.

It's August's Wild Card episode, "The Measure Of A Man" from TNG! Is Data a person? Are Ferengi people? Are Boston Robotics robots people? Get all the answers in this episode!

Does Quark think Sisko is his friend? Are all terraformers insufferable? Can Eddie travel through time? Find out by listening to our "Second Sight" episode! 

It's "Necessary Evil" where we get our first flashback to the Occupation! Has Quark always been a creep? Is Odo a collaborator? Will Sarge predict every plot twist? Listen and find out!

A number of you have asked me if and when Sarge and I will go over the movies. Well, we’d love to, but frankly, our current podcasting duties are a lot of work so far, and we’re going to need an increase in income before we can add in reviewing the movies.

  So, we’ve added the movies as a fundraising goal! Once we reach our goal, Sarge and I will add an extra bonus episode to the feed once a month where we’ll review one of the movies, moving through them chronologically from Star Trek : The Motion Picture to Star Trek Beyond. So if you wanna see Sarge’s reaction to the crew meeting God at the center of the galaxy or hear me do a bad impression of Chekov saying “Nuclear Wessels”, then contribute money to our frivolous endeavor at patreon.com/deepspacenoob! We’re already about a fourth of the way there!

Is the Federation post sexism? Is homosexuality the marijuana of Ferenganar? Is real food better than replicated food? We answer all these questions as we dive into "Rules Of Acquisition"!

It's July's wild card, the original series episode, "Mirror, Mirror"! We discuss how phasers would lead to run away murder, whether or not the mirror universe branched off fro our own, and if parallel universes matter.
